A bit of crafty stuff.

 


Good morning I hope your all enjoying a nice, chilled Sunday, just had my bacon and egg butty so I am ready for anything...as they say..

I am up to all kinds of things but thought I would share these before they get so lost never to be seen again.

Its Teddy Bo time, I still love these images, coloured with flex markers, the background is made up of a few random stamps and thought I would try be abit more colourful.

Then last week I made a couple more tags, and just could not be bothered blogging them at all, I feel I am getting rather lazy, but hey!!!!


 

Sadly the colour just didn't show up, its really quite nice, its one I made on the gel plate but you will hopefully believe me.I added silver foil in bits and bobs and I used various dies and stamped a sentiment.


This one I made simply because I felt 'that way out' that day and I had these strip sentiment and some old DP which all made sense on the day.:)


Now for something abit different, I made this just to keep my hands going, its lovely Shetland wool from Yorkshire trading, very soft and I wanted to try it out. Of course I had to add fringe, I do love fringing. Its been hand washed and naturally dried and its kept its shape, all good.
And what I should have added is it is a crochet item..{.thanks Carol I should have said something.xx}


Thats it for now, I am trying to get round to things as I go, been getting a few things sorted that were getting on top of me, I think I might get used to doing things when i please. Have a lovely day and thankyou so much for coming and having a look round.xx

Tag time.

 


I know I am taking a break but this has been on my desk for a week, never get round to finishing and just kept adding colour here and there, well I had to back away and this is the finished item. I read this morning that the Tagit tuesday have a theme this week of anything with wings..perfect I hope.

Started with white corrigated card and a piece of mountboard cut to shape and just began adding to it, craft stones, metal gears, chippy glasses, TH charm, the wings are from a set I had in my stash for ages and the bolt thats screws through to hold the chain is also a TH most from stash, then the painting began, whatever I added I wasn't happy, so I let it dry and remembered my cream chalks and got the blue-ish look from those, then finally sprayed it with Crafters Companion varnish , I use it alot it jst fixes everything it also makes for a more rigid finish.PHEW....sorry...:)

CraftyCatz challenge #541 ATG


 

Good morning, this is my last post for CraftyCatz for a while.

I was about to step down as I feel at odds about everything just lately, I'm not enjoying things like I once did, its all becoming 'hard work' if that makes sense, anyways, my good friend and boss lady Sue, had a hissy fit and now I am taking a 'break', haha , its ok she knows I love her to bits and we really are real life friends...and the girls on the team are the most wonderful bunch, they support each other all the time, I am sure the old saying, 'be the woman who straightens another womans crown', applies to this lot I really am so I would miss them too much. So break it is, not from all blogging I will be here and coming to see you as per. PHEW!!!!!!

*************************************

OK, here is this weeks, hosted by AuntySue herself and sponsored by CraftyRibbons, the optional theme is use Die and/or punches.


My card was made for a friend and she has it now so ok to show.

The image is a Mo,you can find the shop HERE , it's one of a few I bought from a GV I got for my birthday from my wonderful friend.


Image coloured with promarkers and cut with oval die. The back panel was cut with TH die set, a few paint splashs were added behind the panel and the little sentiment stamp I had in a set. Inside I just added a happy birthday die and again splashed with paint


Thats it then, sorry for the long drawn out post today.
